In case you missed them, Non-League legend Mark ‘Willy’ Wilson was the first to be inducted into the Bradford (Park Avenue) AFC Hall of Fame last night after the Worksop game, and prior to the game, fans had the chance to meet Bradford’s own World Champion Boxer Tasif Khan!

We’d like to say a huge thank you, to both @tasif.khan.boxer, and Mark ‘Willy’ Wilson for attending the game, Mark put on a brilliant show in the Clubhouse after the game, and hopefully everyone enjoyed.

The charity buckets, collecting for @the_bhf raised £120 too, fantastic effort from everyone at the game, so a huge thank you to you too.
